Compartment Review Presentation
Atlanta Forest Management Unit
Compartment 1
Entry Year 2015
Acreage: 1,681
County Montmorency
Management Area: Ausable Outwash
Revision Date: 08/16/2013
Stand Examiner: Darrick Coy
Legal Description:
T29N R01E Sections 3, 4, 9, 10, & 15
Identified Planning Goals:
To provide for the protection, integrated management and responsible use of a healthy, productive, and undiminished
forest resource base for the social, recreational, environmental, and economic benefit of the State of Michigan.
Soil and topography:
Soils are mostly well to excessively drained graylings sands. Overall, the topography is rolling to flat with scattered dried
out ponds or kettles. The compartment forest habitat types are mostly PArVHa & PArVVb. In general, site quality increases
from SW to NE throughout the compartment.
Ownership Patterns, Development, and Land Use in and Around the Compartment:
No ownership changes from previous inventory. Antrim gas development has been a major impact to this compartment.
Some trespass issues may exist.
Unique Natural Features:
Pine Barrens
Element Occurences- rough fescue, pale agoseris, alleghany plum, & hill's thistle
Potential Occurences- red shouldered hawk, bald eagle, common loon, grizzled zipper, red legged spittlebug, dusted
skipper, secretive locust, eastern flat-whorl snail, spike-lip crater snail, doll's merolonche, & whorled pogonia
Archeological, Historical, and Cultural Features:
There are known concerns within the compartment. All proposed management activities have taken these concerns into
consideration.
Special Management Designations or Considerations:
Maintain pine barrens with fire when opportunies become available.
Watershed and Fisheries Considerations:
Maintain quality buffers (or selective cut) around natural lakes.
Wildlife Habitat Considerations:
Featured species in this compartment include white-tailed deer, ruffed grouse, wild turkey, and black bear. There are good
blueberry, cherry, thornapple, oak, and aspen resources in this compartment which offer good spring, summer, and fall
habitat components for the featured species. Maintenance of young forest, large open grassland complexes, and the
maintenance and expansion of hard mast are desireable. Openings should be maintained by seeding or prescribed fire
depending on soils present.
Mineral Resource and Development Concerns and/or Restrictions
Surface sediments consist of glacial outwash sand and gravel and postglacial alluvium and minor end moraine of mediumtextured till. The glacial drift thickness varies between 600 and 800 feet. Beneath the glacial drift is the Mississippian
Coldwater Shale. There is no known economic use for the Coldwater Shale. The nearest gravel pit is located two miles to
the north. There could be some gravel potential. This area has been drilled and is producing gas from the Antrim Shale.
Vehicle Access:
Good. There are many access points with Antrim gas well two-tracks that were created in the last 20 years.
Survey Needs:
none known or verified

Recreational Facilities and Opportunities:
Buttles Rd Pathway and ORV trails cross the compartment between Buttles Rd. and Winding Rd. The Buttles Rd. Pathway
is used for hiking and skiing, a local has been grooming this portion of the trail at his own expense. A new snowmobile trail
was constructed along Winding Rd to connect Montmorency County trails to Otsego County trails.
Fire Protection:
Lewiston and Atlanta Field Office provide protection. Mature jp is being removed to reduce threats of wildfire and heavier
fuel loads. Open grass and shrub areas are being burned periodically as well.

Description
ERA = Ecological Reference Area
HCVA = High Conservation Value Area
SCA = Special Conservation Area
An aquatic or terrestrial area of the State that contains physical remains of human occupation. These are
sites of cultural and historical significance that may occur upon terrestrial areas and Great Lakes
bottomlands. They include thousands of Native American settlements and burial sites, as well as French
and British outposts, nineteenth century logging camps, mines and homesteads. Beneath the waters of
the Great Lakes, there are shipwrecks and other remains documenting the maritime trade. Such sites may
be identified by Natural heritage data from the State Historic Preservation Office. Proposed treatments in
this compartment will be implemented in such a manner as to maintain the integrity of these sites. Due to
the sensitive nature of this information, no further detail about location is available.
